We are muslims and don’t eat pork or non halal meat. They always accomodate our meals with delicious japanese seafood meals. I love that it has its own onsen and private onsen as well. This is our second time here and would love to come again.

They had an onsen on site, the place was very clean, there was a quite large clothes drying room, parking on site, and it was much roomier than I thought it would be. The value was tremendous.

The lodge is situated so that it is possible to ski straight out to a chair lift that takes you up the mountain - this is a really big plus. Also, the food prepared on premises was very good. We ate breakfast in every day and also had 3 dinners at the lodge, 2 of which were delicious traditional Japanese style.
The rooms were comfortable and warm, the dining room is comfortable and there is a good onsen.
The only down side is that the building is quite old and in need of renovation. The corridors are draughty and cold and the layout of the facility is labyrinthine, requiring you to traverse a number of stairways to access different parts of the building.
Also, there is no heated common living room in which to relax.
All in all, a good place to stay but could be more comfortable.

Booking.com Guest Review Guidelines

To keep the rating score and review content relevant for your upcoming trip, we archive reviews older than 24 months.

Only a customer who has booked through Booking.com and stayed at the property in question can write a review. This allows us to verify that our reviews come from real guests like you. Who better to tell others about the free breakfast, friendly staff, or their comfortable room than someone who’s stayed at the property?

We want you to share your story, with both the good and the not-so-good. All we ask is that you follow a few simple guidelines.

Reviews Vision

We believe review contributions and property responses will highlight a wide range of opinions and experiences, which is critical in helping guests make informed decisions about where to stay.

Reviews Principles

Contributions to Booking.com are a reflection of the dedication of our guests and properties, so we treat them with the utmost respect.

Whether negative or positive, we'll post every comment in full, as quickly as possible, after it's moderated to comply with Booking.com guidelines. We'll also provide transparency over the status of submitted content.

After a review has been submitted, you can modify it by contacting Booking.com customer service.

We'll use the same guidelines and standards for all user-generated content, and for the property responses to that content.

We'll allow the contributions to speak for themselves, and we won’t be the judge of reality. Booking.com’s role is to be a feedback distributor for both guests and properties.

Guidelines and Standards for Reviews

These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.

Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.

Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, or the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.

All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.

Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and other similar details.

The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties, and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.

By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

Doesn't have a comfortable lounge or common room and the layout for the lodge is quite unusual and a little outdated.

We don’t drive there so we have to either take a taxi or a bus. The taxi is around 2500¥ : 25$ to the place from myoko kogen station. A bus is a lot cheaper but it only sends you to the foot of the hill. So you need to drag all your bags and climb up to the place. I wish there was an easier yet cheaper way to get there. But after getting to the place itself it wonderful

We are muslims and don’t eat pork or non halal meat. They always accomodate our meals with delicious japanese seafood meals. I love that it has its own onsen and private onsen as well. This is our second time here and would love to come again.

The room was not very clean. The hotel was quiet while we were there but if there had been another family in the next room it would have been very niosy as only a thin door separted the rooms. The communal rooms were not heated so little time spent there. It is not that easy to get from this resort to the others in the area.

The food was great. Worth getting the dinners included.Staff helpful despite limited english. The drying room was big and very functional. Good lifts at the resort and kids ski free.

This hotel is a traditional Ryokan with Japanese sleeping arrangements and shared toilets and onsen. If you are looking for luxury this place is not for you. If you like your pillow from home bring it with you.

For skiing at Suginohara, the location of this hotel can't be beaten. Ski in ski out. There is, however, very little else around. The village of Suginosawa at the base of the Suginohara ski area has an ATM in the post office and a bunch of hotels but no restaurants or cafes. A 20 minute shuttle ($5USD per ride) from the hotel will get you to Akakura where there is adequate nightlife. Check the bus schedule though as the last ride back is 18.30 and a taxi will set you back $25USD. For rental gear the best bet for quality powder gear is the Suginohara base area above the gondola entrance or Akakura onsen village. The staff at the hotel are great but speak only a little English. The food at the hotel is excellent traditional Japanese breakfast and dinner. Many good lunch options on the mountain. Small shop with basic supplies at the Gondola base.
